SAMSUNG announces Galaxy Fold with World's first 7.3-inch Infinity Flex display. Samsung today unveiled the highly anticipated Galaxy Fold, a new foldable device creating a new mobile category. Galaxy Fold features the world's first 7.3-inch Infinity Flex display, which folds into a compact device with a cover display. Galaxy Fold offers a new way to multitask, watch videos, play games, and more.

Galaxy Fold delivers a new kind of mobile experience allowing users to do things they couldn't do with an ordinary smartphone. Users now have the best of both worlds; a compact device that unfolds to reveal Samsung's largest-ever smartphone display. Galaxy Fold brings together material, engineering and display innovations, developed over eight years following the debut of Samsung's first flexible display prototype in 2011.

The Galaxy Fold comes with dual display. On the outside, you have a 4.6" HD+ Super AMOLED (21:9) cover display. The second is a 7.3" QXGA+ Dynamic AMOLED (4:2:3) main display.

It runs on Android 9.0 (Pie) OS with One UI skin on top. The unique UX built just for Galaxy Fold, provides new ways to get the most out of the smartphone. With Multi-Active Window, you can open up to three active apps simultaneously on the main display. App Continuity makes intuitive, seamless transitions between the cover and the main displays. As Galaxy Fold opens and closes, apps will automatically show up where you leave off.

Samsung equipped Galaxy Fold with a next-generation 7nm 64-bit Octa-core processor and 12GB of RAM. The device has two batteries (with a combined capacity of 4,380mAh). Galaxy Fold is also capable of charging itself and a second device simultaneously via Wireless PowerShare, while connected to a regular charger so you can leave your second charger at home.

The Galaxy Fold comes with a total of 6 cameras. First, when the phone is folded, you have a 10MP selfie camera on the cover. At the back, you get a triple camera setup (16MP Ultra Wide + 12MP Wide-angle + 12MP Telephoto with 2X optical zoom ). Now, when the device is unfolded, there are two cameras inside (10MP selfie + 8MP RGB depth).

Pricing & Availability
SAMSUNG's Galaxy Fold will be available in the second quarter of 2019.
